Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Cut each wing in half at the joint, and optionally trim the tips with kitchen scissors.

2. 2

   Toss the wings with the oil and seasoning, then spread them evenly in the air‑fryer basket (you may use a model with or without a stirrer).

3. 3

   Set the program for 35 minutes. Check that the wings are tender and cooked through – they should pull away easily from the bone. If needed, continue cooking for another 5 minutes.

4. 4

   The skin should become golden and crispy, and any excess fat should be drained into the bottom of the appliance.

5. 5

   Do not leave the wings in the device, otherwise steam will soften the skin. Immediately transfer them to a bowl and serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
